Confucius Say:

Don't speak with bad, un-P.C. Asian accent!

So, yeah, the character I am booked to play on Saturday night at the LucasFilm Holiday Party is a "Wise Old Asian Man"-type. But the event planners don't want me to try too hard to be Asian, since I'm not. So my plan is to be a Wise Old Asian Ex-New York Jew. That should entertain the Lucas CGI Geeks!

Be that as it may, I still have to come up with some Asian-y costume, and the best resource I found in the Yellow Pages was the A.C.T. (American Conservatory Theater) Costume Rental Shop. Pictured here is MOI in the robe I'll be wearing, via bad Verizon Camera-Phone pic.

What I'll be doing at the party is being part of this Treasure Hunt activity-- actually the final Pit-Stop of the Treasure Hunt. I know I can pull this off; it's just getting the whole look together that's more work.

In other newz: I'm afraid that it might take me friggin' months to archive all the entries in my old AOL journal-- and I had the sick thought yesterday: what if Blogspot does something funky with ads or fees in the future? Should I spend all this time transferring old entries to Blogspot, or should I just transfer them to a file on my Hard Drive???

Last night I was trying to save this old .gif and it wasn't working. (Still isn't, goshdarnit, it's s'posed to spin!) I'm almost tempted to just chuck my entire old AOL journal, but I won't do something impulsive like that.

And how are you all?????
